      That’s absolutely insane that there’s 3B+ people on Facebook. I honestly don’t believe that number is accurate at all.

      Am I underestimating how many people have phones/internet access at this point?

        Everyone. Damn near everyone has a phone at this point, Facebook even handed them out to keep the user numbers growing at one point

        People who live in dirt floor huts walk to churches or other gathering places to charge them. The cheapest smart phones are essentially worthless, so there’s no point stealing or selling them.

        And cell service isn’t all that expensive to run, so it’s priced to what people will pay
